The $(α,β)$-Ricci-Yamabe flow exists on closed manifolds.

In this paper, we give the first detailed proof of the short-time existence of Deane Yang's local Ricci flow. Then using the local Ricci flow, we prove short-time existence of the Ricci flow on noncompact manifolds, whose Ricci curvature has global lower bound and sectional curvature has only local average integral bou…

We show the existence of a deformation process of hypersurfaces from a product space $M_1\times R$ into another product space $M_2\times R$ such that the relation of the principal curvatures of the deformed hypersurfaces can be controlled in terms of the sectional curvatures or Ricci curvatures of $M_1$ and $M_2$. In t…

We study an infinite-horizon discrete-time optimal stopping problem under non-exponential discounting. A new method, which we call the iterative approach, is developed to find subgame perfect Nash equilibria. When the discount function induces decreasing impatience, we establish the existence of an equilibrium through …

The heat flow for Dirac-harmonic maps on Riemannian spin manifolds is a modification of the classical heat flow for harmonic maps by coupling it to a spinor. It was introduced by Chen, Jost, Sun, and Zhu as a tool to get a general existence program for Dirac-harmonic maps. For source manifolds with boundary they obtain…

We study the existence problem for tilted unduloids in $\mathbb{H}^2\times\mathbb{R}$. These are singly periodic annuli with constant mean curvature $H>1/2$ in $\mathbb{H}^2\times\mathbb{R}$, and the periodicity of these surfaces is with respect to a discrete group of translations along a geodesic that is neither verti…

Given a closed 3-manifold with an initial Riemannian metric of negative sec- tional curvature, we consider the cross curvature flow an evolution equation of metric on M3. We prove long-time existence of a solution to the cross curvature flow via the maximum principle theorem. Besides, we demonstrate the solution exists…

Let $(M^n, g)$ be a compact $n$-dim ($n\geq 2$) manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature, and if $n\geq 3$ we assume that $(M^n, g)\times \mathbb{R}$ has nonnegative isotropic curvature. The lower bound of the Ricci flow's existence time on $(M^n, g)$ is proved. This provides an alternative proof for the uniform lower…

Inspired by Strotz's consistent planning strategy, we formulate the infinite horizon mean-variance stopping problem as a subgame perfect Nash equilibrium in order to determine time consistent strategies with no regret. Equilibria among stopping times or randomized stopping times may not exist. This motivates us to cons…

We prove the existence of a Radner equilibrium in a model with proportional transaction costs on an infinite time horizon and analyze the effect of transaction costs on the endogenously determined interest rate. Two agents receive exogenous, unspanned income and choose between consumption and investing into an annuity.…

We consider a short time existence problem motivated by a conjecture of Joyce. Specifically we prove that given any compact Lagrangian $L\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ with a finite number of singularities, each asymptotic to a pair of non-area-minimising, transversally intersecting Lagrangian planes, there is a smooth Lagrangi…

We study the behaviour of the Ricci Yang-Mills flow for U(1) bundles on surfaces. We show that existence for the flow reduces to a bound on the isoperimetric constant. In the presence of such a bound, we show that on $S^2$, if the bundle is nontrivial, the flow exists for all time. For higher genus surfaces the flow al…

We show short time existence and uniqueness of $\C^{1,1}$ solutions to the mean curvature flow with obstacles, when the obstacles are of class $\C^{1,1}$. If the initial interface is a periodic graph we show long time existence of the evolution and convergence to a minimal constrained hypersurface.

We establish short-time existence and regularity for higher-order flows generated by a class of polynomial natural tensors that, after an adjustment by the Lie derivative of the metric with respect to a suitable vector field, have strongly parabolic linearizations. We apply this theorem to flows by powers of the Laplac…

We introduce a geometric evolution equation for 3-manifolds with sectional curvature of one sign which is in some sense dual to the Ricci flow. On a closed 3-manifold with negative sectional curvature, we establish short time existence and a pair of monotonicity formulas for solutions to the flow. One of these formulas…

We study the prescribed mean curvature equation with a prescribed boundary contact angle condition in $M\times\R$ where $M^n$ is a Riemannian submanifold in $\R^{n+1}$. The main purpose is to establish a priori gradient estimates for solutions, from which the long time existence of the solution are derived.
